Firing orders

I know someone in here knows the difference, if any, in the firing orders of the 7.3, 6.0, and 6.4 PSDs. If you have them , could you post them, please.

Thanks

No wonder it doesn't work, mine don't have plugs!! Actually it feels and sounds as tho the 6.4 has a different exhaust sound than the 7.3 and 6.0 . They always sound like there was a "miss" when pulling hard. I guess I'll have to check with Ford for firing order.
Thanks

6.4 sounds different probably because of the DPF, as well as the new common rail system, which gives the computer much great control over injection timing.
